Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
StyledString	getStyledDisplayString()	Returns the styled string used to display this proposal in the list of completion proposals.

Method Details

getStyledDisplayString

StyledString getStyledDisplayString()

Returns the styled string used to display this proposal in the list of completion proposals. This can for example be used to draw mixed colored labels.

Note: ICompletionProposal.getDisplayString() still needs to be correctly implemented as this method might be ignored in case of uninstalled owner draw support. If ICompletionProposalExtension7 is implemented by this proposal then instead of using this method, the result from ICompletionProposalExtension7.getStyledDisplayString(org.eclipse.jface.text.IDocument, int, BoldStylerProvider) is used to display the proposal.

Returns:

the string builder used to display this proposal
